We Want The Guavaween Parade Back

Again the ever changing Guavaween is back. This year it has a new name.
Guavaween Voodoo Carnival
What does Voodoo have to do with Ybor City? We are not New Orleans. 
No more street party. This year you get to go to The Cuban Club. For $20 - $85
But still no parade

The Ybor City Chamber of Commerce is considering licensing its nationally-known Halloween event, Guavaween, to a third party for 2014. "We think it's time for the Chamber to spin-off this unique special event,"
said David Alvarez, Chair of the Ybor City Chamber. here

I wonder how the merchants on 7th Ave feel about The Chamber taking away their business on possibly the best night of the year. We urge to party on 7th and support the folks that are there all year long.
